NEW York, January 26th-A consulta-

bishop Corrigan, Monsignor Preston and
DR.. Dennelly, the new pastor of st. Ste
phens. The result was the transfer from
st. Stephens to other parishes of all the
priests who were associated with DIR. Nc
Glynn. This action caused much indigna-
ton in the parish. DR.. Donnelly will re-
main, as he expresses it, for the purpose
of conquering the parish" Cardinal Glib
bons, OF Baltimore, and Cardinal Tasche-
reau, of Montreal, are expected to be here
tomorrow. 1t is understood they will hold
conference with Archbishop Corrigan.
Cardinal Gibbons will sail for Earope on
Saturday. DR.. McGlynns physician said
tonight that he had not written a line of
his reply to the Bishop, and would not be
able to do SO for several days.
The committee of the parishioners of
st. Stephens appointed to call upon the
Archbishop and request the reinstatement
of DR.. McGIvnn, made q preliminary re-
port tonight. They recite that it had been
their intention to report in the church, but
that, for the first time in the history of st.
Stephens Church, it was locked and police
men stationed at the entrance, and add
g 1t was the intention of the committee to
engage hall, but we have good reasons to
believe that the meeting contemplated
would be packed with those unfriendly to

best to ,eport back TO our fellow parish

What Queen Victoria Has 20 Say to Par
Iiament To-day.
LONDON, January 26th-The following is
forecast of the Queens speech, which
will be read at the opening of Parliament
tomorrow
Engands foreign relations are friendly
The affairs in Southeastern Europe are in
fair way of settlement, but England must
insist upon an observance of the Treaty of
Berlin. In Burmah and Egypt there is a
gratifying improvement. Grave anxiety is
caused by the state of Ireland. The sys-
tenn adopted there of combining to force
tenants 10 evade their Just debts may com
pei lurther legislation, and the Govern
ment will not hesitate to ask additional
powers, if necessary. The bills to be sub
mitted by the Government relate to land
transfers, railway rates, trademarks, and
the faeilitation of agricultural ailotments.
The report is characterized by more than
usual vagueHess. The hints of legislation
for Ireland are especially obscure. The
only allusion to conspiracy bill is found
in reference to the plan of campaign and
the Governments intention to introduce, if
necessary, a bill amending the existing law
SO as to enable it to cope with the move
ment. An indication of the extension of
the Ashbourne Act is given in the express
sion of the hope that the labors of the
Rent Commission will have an issue in
measure TO ameliorate the condition of the
country. The leading measure for England
and Scotland is the County Government
Act

LONDON, January 2Tth-A. M.-Lord Ran
dolph Churchill, in explaining his resigna-
ton to the House of Commons will lay be-
fore it his correspondence with Lord Sails
bury, which will show that instead OF in
viting him. as Chancellor of the Exchequer,
TO explain fully to the Premier and Cabi-
net the grounds which made it necessary
for him to insist upon modification OF the
estimates of Lord George Hamilton and
W. H. Smith, Salisbury simply declared
that he must support those estimates, and
therefore with great regret accept his
resignation. This, of course, closed the
doors to further explanation, and left
Lord Randolph no alternative. He
will place his resignation before the
House and state that it was grounded
technically upon his inability to accept the
estimates of bis colleagues in the Admi-
rally and War Office. Official and Pariia-
mentary proprieiy will compel him to
limit his explanation in the House SUB
stantially to this statement, but he VIII
make public his letter to the Parliament
ary whip of the Conservative party, written
three weeks ago, in which he states that
he regards the maintenance OF the Union
as the paramount question of the day,
ana upon that question be will give
unhesitatin5 support to the Government. As
regards the future OF the Conservative
party, however j; is dependent upon the
degree in which it can carry out its prom

tenance of a pacific policy in foreign af
fairs. On these points Lord Randolph has
pledged himself repeatedly to the new
Democratic electorate, and il was in con-
seque nee of these pledges that lie found it
impossible to go on with his colleagues.

Parliament to Meet To-day-Lord Church.
HIS Policy.

Ills Policy.
New YORK, January 26th.-The Posts
London special saws The political stu
alton in which Parliament will meet to-
morrow is one of complete fog. The pro.
ceedings will probably be of very lively
character. Among the first of these will
be illusions TO Lord Iddesleigh's death
On this point Salisbury will have good
deal to say in self-defense He will read
the correspondence which passed between
himself and Iddesleigh, including the un-
finished letter of the latter.
Lord Randolph Churchilrs course is
naturally watched with great interest.
Upon this am able to speak positively,
that after the moving Of Pew writs to-mor-
row he will ask the Indulgence of the
House for some personal explanations of
his reasons for leaving the Government.
How far. however, this will agree with the
financial arguments which occasioned his
resignation, or general disagreement with
the Conservative party, which was the un-
derlying cause" nobody knows. | have
his own authority for saying there are
three matters on which he is likely to
oppose the Government. First, the local
Government bill, about which there has
been so much dissension in the Cabinet.
1t is secret whether this has been
dropped, or remodeled, or whether it will
be introduced in its original form. If the
latter, Lord Randolph will strongly oppose
it. The second is coercion for Ireland,
which he will oppose with all his might
The third is what is now known as Bat
tenbergism." On the whole, it is now
pretty certain the Government will have to
count upon him as among its enemies
